Description
Chemical process plants nowadays have become complicated because of the huge demand of various petroleum, chemical, and pharmaceutical products. The industrial processes have become more dangerous with the increased use of hazardous materials, high pressure processes, toxic gases, complicated chemical reactions etc. Concerns have grown to estimate and quantify risk of major chemical accidents.Systematically identifying major hazards arising from the complex and the dangerous process plant and the assessment of their likelihood and severity are the key steps to establish which parts of the plant need special attention.
This course covers different techniques of hazard identification, which includes: What-If Analysis, Checklist Analysis, What-If/ Checklist Analysis, Hazard and Operability Analysis (HAZOP), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Event Tree Analysis (ETA), Bow-tie Analysis, and Cause-Consequence Analysis.
Objective
This course is an introduction to concepts and techniques of ‘Hazard Identification Techniques” applied to prevent and mitigate accidents and associated losses in industrial aspects. Accidents associated with hazards found in the industries are preventable and not immitigable if hazards are properly identified.Our central problem is not to address safety features properly and as well as not following proper procedures at workplace during operation and maintenance. The objective of this course is to learn concepts and techniques of ‘Hazard Identification Techniques” and how to apply those in real application to prevent and mitigate accidents and minimize losses associated with people, property, process and environment.
Learning Outcomes
- Learn the ability to know about the potential hazards
- Understand hazard identification techniques (foundational knowledge).
- Think critically, creatively, and practically toidentified potential hazards (application learning).
- Students would be able to develop a sense of responsibility to save others’ lives; “due diligence” (caring).
- At the end of the course students would be capable to analyze data and then would be able to utilize required data in hazard identification.
- Students would be able to deal hazards with proper safety management tools.
The PDDP Distance Education program works as follows: You will receive the course notes in hard copy through the online website, you will receive a set of notes each week covering the course material. A one hour video-conference session will be conducted by your instructor each week (if required). The objective of this session is to assist in solving the assignments, as well as answer student questions that should be sent to instructor early enough prior to the meeting time. In addition with being able to communicate with the instructor, you will also be able to communicate with other students in the same class and watch their questions being answered as well. (A high speed internet connection is strongly recommended for this feature). Each set of exercises can be completed and submitted by the indicated date and your completed exercise will be marked online and and returned by your instructor. To gain the most from your course, it is highly recommended that you participate fully in all discussions and exercises. Please remember that each course has a form of quiz or exercise at the end to test your understanding of the material. You will be informed of these dates when you receive the course schedule.
*Course commencement date is subject to instructor availability.
